Tomato - Cherokee Purple (3.5" pot)
Indeterminate. An heirloom that has been a favourite among home gardeners for well over a century. Very large, meaty fruit has a superb, sweet and smoky flavour with low acidity. Try ‘Cherokee Purple’ for a real, old-time tomato taste. They are a delicious slicer, and a phenomenal sauce tomato! Fruit matures to dusky purple-red with green shoulders, but give them a daily squeeze as maturity nears, as this colour pattern will often disguise ripeness. Plants require a strong stake or cage, and fruit often requires additional support as they routinely reach 1lb or more.
Harvest: 80 days
Height: 6-9’
Plant Spacing: 24”
